The breakfast was great, with many choices, including fruit, yogurt, eggs, bacon, sausage, and a cool machine that makes small, tender pancakes that are almost like crepes (great with nutella on them). A machine makes a variety of tasty espresso drinks at the push of a button (grinding the beans for each serving). The pool, hot tub, courtyard and garden area are beautiful, well-maintained, and spacious, with plenty of seating and walkways throughout. The room was nice, with a sleek, modern feel in the main area that included a small couch, coffee table, and an armoire.

The property here itself was quite nice. The young lady at the front desk was extremely friendly and helpful. I put all issues of my dirty room and pour upkeep of furniture and fixtures and appliances solely on housekeeping and engineering floors were sticky carpet, grimy sheets, and towels have hard crusty spots and stains This is the first location I’ve used that I refuse to even collect my reward points probably will not return to this location and definitely will not recommend
